2 Days in Gurgaon for a Solo Trip

Gurgaon might be known for its corporate hustle, but it's got a surprising mix of green spaces, great food, and quirky spots perfect for solo travelers. I've spent weekends here just wandering around, and it's way more fun than people give it credit for. Whether you're into quiet parks, street food, or just watching the city buzz from a rooftop cafe, this itinerary covers the best bits without feeling rushed.
